Sue's News and Views

December 2021

Dear All,


If you live in Tel Aviv, Paris, Singapore, Zurich, Hong Kong, New York, Geneva, Copenhagen, Los Angeles or Osaka -  congratulations, you live in one of the most expensive cities of the world, according to a biannual report by the Economist Intelligence Unit. 


If you love numbers and stats - enjoy the new Compass Market Insights of Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens, below.


If you're into colors and lights - there are many places to go this December (see NYC events section, curated just for you).


And if, for one reason or another, you can't or won't go out or travel, light a candle and take a trip on the magic carpet of your imagination to that place in the universe where you feel free, safe, connected and content.


Happy Holidays and Warm Regards!

Lifestyle Tips & Tricks

Millennials and Homebuying:

Real Estate Adapts to Largest Generation



According to the American Community and American Housing surveys, there are 66 million millennials in the U.S., and they now represent 37 percent of the total national homebuying market. 

Millennials approach homebuying differently than older generations. It’s not just an obsession with Zillow browsing, but also different preferences for what they want in a home and more comfort in relying more heavily on digital processes from walkthroughs to closings, so the landscape is shifting to accommodate their needs and desires.


 

Try These Alcohol-Free Spirits This Holiday Season
Fueled by consumers' interest to drink less alcohol or cut it out entirely, many brands have come out with alcohol-free spirits that look and taste just like the real deal. These zero-proof creations can be used to whip up mocktails, in conjunction with alcohol in order to cut back on a drink's ABV, or, in many cases, enjoyed entirely on their own.
Designers Share the Interior Design Trends They're Most Excited About for 2022
2021 has looked a bit more similar to 2020 than we hoped, but that has meant we've continued to lean into our homes for creative inspiration this year. While we are crossing our fingers for more cocktail parties and jet-setting come 2022, appreciation for our homes as sanctuaries is here to stay.
